    What actually changes

    HTML and PDF are not the same picture in two wrappers.

    The HTML is laid out by a browser engine at a fixed viewport width and paginated into pages. Text stays selectable and links stay clickable.

    Worth knowing first

    Pagination is the hard part. Without CSS page break rules, tables split across pages mid-row and headings end up stranded at the bottom of a page. Print stylesheets exist for exactly this, and a page that has never been printed usually has not got one.

    Questions

    HTML to PDF, answered

    Does JavaScript run?

    Content rendered by script may or may not have finished before the snapshot is taken. Server-rendered HTML converts far more predictably.

    Why do my colours look washed out?

    Browsers strip background colours when printing unless print-color-adjust is set to exact in the stylesheet.

    What page size do I get?

    Whatever the CSS page rule says, defaulting to A4 or Letter.
